Difference between Name and Clean

Name

Creates a valid file name for all operating systems.

❯ svach -n 'Hello___World!!!!!/\\'
Hello___World!!!!!

Clean

Creates a valid file name and removes all control characters, repeated separators (_, -. +, \, !, ). Different kinds of space are replaced with normal space character.

❯ svach 'Hello___World!!!!!/\\'
Hello_World!
